Grandma's Feather Bed - Fredi Nest

作词:Jim Connor

作曲:Jim Connor

When I was a little bitty boy just up off a floor

We used to go down to Grandma's house

Every month end or so

We'd have chicken pie and country ham

Homemade butter on the bread

But the best darn thing about Grandma's house

Was her great big feather bed

It was nine feet high

And six feet wid soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers

Of forty-eleven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep

But we had a lot of fun on Grandma's feather bed

After supper we'd sit around the fire

The old folks would spit and chew

Pa would talk about the farm and the war

And Granny'd sing a ballad or two

I'd sit and listen and watch the fire

Till the cobwebs filled my head

Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning

In the middle of the old feather bed

It was nine feet high

And six feet wid soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty-eleven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep

But we had a lot of fun on Grandma's feather bed

Well I love my Ma I love my Pa

I love Granny and Grandpa too

I been fishing with my uncle

I ras'led with my cousin

I even kissed Aunt Lou ew

But if I ever had to make a choice

I guess it oughta be said

That I'd trade 'em all plus

The gal down the road for

My Grandma's feather bed

I'd trade 'em all plus the gal down the road

Wow the girls kinda of foxy

It was nine feet high

And six feet wid soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers

Of forty-eleven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun

On Grandma's feather bed

We didn't get much sleep

But we had a lot of fun

On Grandma's feather bed
